Traffic lights are operated by creatures who live inside them

When I was 5 or 6,I noticed that whenever Dad got caught by a red light,he would scream damn monkeys! So for awile I believed the monkeys controlled traffic lights!

i used to believe that the way traffic lights changed colour was by a little man living inside the traffic lights. every time the colour changed i thought he had moved, i.e if the lights were red he was standing inside the red light, if the lights were green he was standing inside the green light.

For some strange reason when I was little, I believed that monkeys sat in traffic lights to change them for traffic. I guess that came from being A Flintstones fan!!!

When I was a child I thought that stop lights had little devils inside of them that changed the signals from green to yellow to red and back.

The little devil used levers to change the lights. He looked like the little devil on the Underwood Deviled Ham labels.

I used to think there was a little man, that lived inside each of the traffic lights in the world that opereated them

I used to believe that there were little men that lived in the boxes on some street corners and they were there to change the street lights for the drivers.

When I was three; I firmly believed that elves lived inside the red lights, and that they had some sort of messaging system that told them to hold up a red/green/yellow ball up to the hold. It was a greatly amusing thing to think about at the age of three.

When I was little I used to think that there were little people who lived in the traffic lights, so I used to wave at them, thinking that they would change for us if we were nice.

When I was a kid my dad could always tell when the traffic lights were going to change grees so I believed that there were monkeys inside traffic lights and that is what made them change

I used to believe that little knomes worked in the traffic lights and changed them when it was time for someone else to go.

I used to think that little men lived inside traffic lights and when the lights changed to red they had to colour in the green circle before the lights changed! Odd, I know!
